The Steelers were mistakenly awarded a first down on a nine-yard run by Rashard Mendenhall during their 22-17 loss to the Jets on Sunday. On first-and-10 from New York's 35 early in the second quarter, Mendenhall gained nine yards to the 26-yard line. After momentary confusion as the chain crew began moving the sticks, referee Peter Morelli's crew put the ball down at the 25 and signaled a first down. The extra yard gave Mendenhall a 100-yard game and Pittsburgh scored a touchdown on the drive.
